I went to nitto's site but didnt see any 18's, only 17's. Did i got to the wrong site? Drag Radials, thats what i meant.

They are there...go to this link...http://www.nittotire.com/mainframe.asp

1. Go to extreme tire line
2. Choose 555R
3. Scroll down to the very bottom of the chart, they are the last size listed.

Here is the info they list:
Tire Size - 305/45R18 110V
Tread Depth (1/32") - 6.3
Inflated Overall Diameter - 28.78
Overall Width - 12.05
Approved Rim Width - 9.5 to 11.5 with 10 being optimum
Max Load Pressure - 2337lbs @ 44 psi
Revs per mile - 722

Hope this helps

Dunno...never used them...

They are not going to work as well as slicks though...it just depends on what you want. If you want something you can put on a stock 18" rim and use on the street, and the track, I think they are your only option. If you want the best traction at the track, then 15" or 16" slicks are the way to go.

Just my 2 pennies...

k, thats exactly what i was looking for, a drag radial that will go on my stock wheel that will hook up a lot better and still be streetable. Who else makes 18" drag radials? and how do they compare? Anyone here running them?
